After ten months of planning, Blind Hog and Acorn had a great two weeks away.   Helsinki, Tallinn, Oslo and Aurland were awesome. Lots of museums, sites, friends made new and old.  Farm-sitters reported no issues and also had a relaxing time away from the city.Now it is time for fall chores:  goat breeding, garlic planting, bean shelling, wood stacking.Dorothy said "there's no place like home" but that does not mean it isn't fun to explore for a bit!Click HERE to see the travel diary...

Send us a textWe start the show by giving our thoughts on HBO's ‘Task'. From the same creators of “Mayor of Kingstown', how do feel it matches up against the long running HBO franchise? This leads us into a discussion as to whether we grade shows differently based on if we know the area it takes place in.Kimmel and Colbert had a joint simulcast on each other shows the other night. This leads us into a discussion about the overwhelming uproar on Kimmel and Colbert‘s suspensions. From our conversation last episode, is the recent Jimmy Kimmel situation (and the outcry that occurred from it) a clear indication that the first amendment is here to stay due to the self policing by the American people? Likewise, whatever happened to the late night host hating each other? Do we miss this and, most importantly, do we want it back?Despite filming not finished, Christopher Nolan's new movie, The Odyssey, has already has begun selling out in IMAX theaters across the country. This leads us into a short discussion on whether the screen size affects our movie going experiences. Are movies being made today even worth seeing in bigger screens, such as IMAX? Our answers might surprise you.THEN: British Corner. Rhea reviews the sixth season of ‘Unforgotten' on Acorn. As one of her favorite British shows of all time, why did she wait until the whole season came out to review it? What does this have to say about how Acorn, and British shows as a whole, release their content? Why is this murder mystery, in particularly this season, so intriguing and such a must watch in Rhea's eyes?Angelo reviews Netflix's 'Black Rabbit'. What about Jason Bateman‘s performance in this show makes it a must watch? He also give a cliff hanger for a British Rom- Com for Rhea to review next week.Jay finishes up the show by giving us, what he believes, is the best movie of this decade.

Send us a textA Melbourne winter. A real gap in kids' wool headwear. A founder with a finance brain and a product heart. That is how Acorn Kids began. In this episode, Fiona Savaris shares how a winter beanie line turned into a year-round headwear brand that stockists love, why wholesale still wins for volume, and how she just launched swimwear by leveraging prints, suppliers, and existing demand. If you care about cash flow, indent, stockist relationships, and direct-to-consumer growth, you will love this founder story.Learn how to use indent orders to protect margins and place smarter production betsSee how a wholesale-first strategy can fuel longevity and repeat stockist revenueSteal the exact assets that help retailers sell more hats, beanies, and swim hatsHear the behind-the-scenes of a category expansion into swimwear that makes senseThe spark: Fiona could not find warm, design-forward kids hats in Melbourne. She starts winter-only with wool beanies, mittens, and scarves made through a women's collective and Brunswick production.The shift: Summer hats unlock smoother cash flow. Parents need hats for daycare and kinder. Kids lose hats. Heads grow. DTC sells summer all year.The engine: Wholesale remains the volume play. Disciplined launch timing, no constant discounting, and shared lifestyle photography keep stockists profitable.The system: Present ranges on Brandboom, take indent orders, back winners, manage MOQs for healthy margins, and hold core SKUs for reorders.The expansion: From swim hats to swimwear. Same brand prints. Specialist makers. A product customers already asked for.The team: Two full-time. Outsourced specialists for Klaviyo email marketing, Meta ads, photography, design, and sales support. Agents plus trade shows to reconnect face-to-face.The real life: Growth is not linear. Family health, market swings, and pacing. How to keep building without burning out.Timestamps 00:00 Origin story in Melbourne.

We dive more into the details of the situation, the first amendment as a whole, and give our thoughts and opinions on the situation.We then get into Jimmy Kimmel's return itself.

Today on the show, Virginia mountain hunter Ralph Barton breaks down his early-season bowhunting strategy in the big woods. Ralph shares how he scouts for productive acorn trees, pinpoints bedding areas, and uses persistence to get deer into bow range in some of the toughest terrain in the eastern US. From reading feed trees to adjusting stands by just a few yards, his approach shows how to consistently find deer in low-density mountain country consistently.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

TJ is joined once again by Nate, the 22-year-old founder of Acorn Hills, for his third appearance on the show. Nate shares exciting updates about the growth of his eco-friendly golf apparel brand, including the official launch of the Founder's Club—a quarterly subscription box delivering exclusive apparel and accessories valued at over $100 for just $60. Designed and curated by Nate himself, the Founder's Club blends quality, accessibility, and a sense of community while staying true to Acorn Hills' mission of giving back to the environment.TJ and Nate dive into what makes this new venture unique, from its members-only exclusivity to the thoughtful product curation meant for golfers and non-golfers alike. They also highlight the loyalty and passion of Acorn Hills customers, sharing stories of spotting their gear in the wild and the pride that comes from representing the brand. With the Founders Club now live, Nate reflects on the journey of building Acorn Hills from a college project into a growing force in golf fashion, and what's ahead for the brand.Nate shares how Acorn Hills is carefully balancing golf performance wear with lifestyle apparel—designing pieces that work just as well at the course as they do at work, a night out, or even a backyard barbecue. With input from his design partner Reese, Nate emphasizes creating clothing that's stylish, functional, and truly wearable in multiple settings. He also discusses upcoming fall and winter drops, his growing private-label venture Thimble, and why authenticity and community collaborations—like seeing Acorn Hills pop up on cooking and lifestyle pages—matter just as much as the golf world.Whether you're a golfer or not, Acorn Hills is proving that its apparel is about more than sport—it's about building a versatile, modern wardrobe while staying connected to its roots.https://acornhillsco.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/acorn.hills/?hl=enSend us a message and let us know what you thought about this episode!

Coming home from dropping Ava off at college was really hard but the raw, unedited content that came from that heartbreak became Krista's most engaging post ever.   In this solo episode, Krista shares the story behind her viral Instagram post about sending her daughter off to college, and why it teaches us everything we need to know about creating content that truly connects. What started as 20 minutes of writing in her Notes app during one of the hardest moments of her life reached over 61k views, got 94% non-follower reach, and even earned a like from bestselling author Elin Hilderbrand!   The best content comes from the heart, not the head. It doesn't come from AI prompts or "30 pieces of content in 30 minutes" solutions. When you lead with your heart and take off the masks, you create real connection - and that's what sells.   Listen in to hear:   - The 20-minute Notes app writing session that became Krista's most viral post ever [04:49] - How one vulnerable post reached 61K views with 94% being complete strangers [15:25] - The exact metrics behind content that got 200 new follows and 873 saves [15:25] - How to turn your scariest, most vulnerable moments into your most engaging content - Why "30 pieces of content in 30 minutes" AI solutions are making everyone sound cheap and forgettable [29:20] - The Taylor Swift quote about your energy being "expensive" and how to handle critics [24:46] - Krista's simple test: "Will this help someone feel less alone?" - and why that's all that matters - And more!   ---   Join the ACORN storyselling program, Sell Anything HERE: https://www.kristademcher.com/sellanythingsignature-1   Take the "What's Your Sales Style Quiz?": https://www.kristademcher.com/sales-style-quiz   Follow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfQNMxt1N_x6vO_dnizVu2g   Follow SHE SELLS HE SELLS on IG:: https://www.instagram.com/shesellshesellspodcast

Since 2008, and even more since 2018 and 2023, private equity firms have been buying up real estate and rental properties across the U.S. No firm has preyed up on peoples' precarity more than private equity firm Blackstone. The fimr is the largest landlord in the United States by... a LOT. It owns 100,00 more rental units than its next closest competitor. In our latest, Scott talks with Jordan Ash, the housing director at the Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) about private equity, Blackstone and the housing crisis. Bio//Jordan Ash lives in Minnesota and has worked for over twenty-five years doing community and labor organizing. He currently leads the housing work for the Private Equity Stakeholder Project , a nonprofit watchdog organization focused on the impacts of private equity firms, hedge funds, and similar Wall Street firms on workers and communities. Prior to this, he spent more than a decade doing research and strategic campaigning for labor unions, and over a dozen years working for the community organization ACORN, where he played a leading role in the group's campaign against predatory mortgage lending.------------------------------------------

Today we will perform a financial autopsy of the Left. Where do they get all that money?They certainly don't work for it. These people go from poverty to the penthouse faster than any other group on earth except African generals who overthrow their governments.Then again, in 2020 we had our own coup and clearly a LOT of Democrats got filthy rich during the 4 years that ensued.Democrats have been using our money against us for DECADES. When the team I was on exposed ACORN, we didn't realize that situation was a pimple on an elephant's butt of the corruption inside our government.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Labour's homelessness minister, Rushanara Ali, has resigned from government after it emerged she evicted four tenants from a property she owns - before re-letting it just weeks later and hiking the rent by £700 a month. The move would likely be prohibited under Labour's Renters' Rights Bill, which introduces new protections for tenants. When Labour's Renters' Rights Bill comes into force, this action will be illegal. We hear from The Standard's Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford, and Anny Cullum, political officer with the community and renters union ACORN. And in part two, journalist Arielle Domb investigates why people are administering their own botox cosmetic treatments. What's behind the DIY movement, and what are the risks? Hosted on Acast.

The National Pension Helpline has this morning launched the first ever online pension comparison platform in Ireland, which tracks the performance of hundreds of pension funds. The Irish Pension Fund Explorer is a free comparison tool with real-time data on 597 pension funds, aimed at promoting transparency within the industry and allowing people to make better investment decisions. The searchable database can be used to compare each fund's growth, risk exposure, where their assets are located, and the holding companies involved. It provides clear comparisons between two or more funds with interactive graphs and charts, allowing savers to view multiple funds' value and performance side by side, as well as other key stats such as management fees. Irish Pension Fund Data Resource Various funds from the same pension provider can also be pitted against each other to compare how each fund is faring, with users being able to toggle between different timeframes to get a clear picture of performance over time. There are ten significant pension fund operators in Ireland: Zurich, Irish Life, Aviva, New Ireland, Standard Life, Mercer, Acorn, Royal London, BOI and AIB. Those wishing to invest have needed to go to each provider individually or ask a broker to help them compare funds - whereas the Pension Fund Explorer allows people to view every portfolio from every provider available in Ireland in one location. The tool is free and no registration or personal details are required, giving everyone equal access to the data. Speaking at the launch, James Dorrian, Managing Director of the National Pension Helpline, said: "This new platform is a major milestone in making the pension industry more transparent and easier for the public to navigate the hundreds of funds that are available. "The National Pension Helpline was set up out of frustration for how hard it is for the average person in Ireland to get the information they need when it comes to investing in their pension. "This first-of-its-kind public resource allows users to compare the performance, asset allocations and risk profiles of hundreds of individual pension funds. "We believe that this data should be freely available without people having to trudge through and compare hundreds of documents, and the Fund Explorer enables people to compare every fund under one roof. "Investing in the wrong fund can cost you in retirement, and similarly, smart investments have a compounding effect which means that even monthly contributions can grow into a substantial pension pot in the future. "We make no claims that past performance can predict future outcomes, however, our independently sourced data can certainly give people a taste of how each fund is performing against other funds, either from the same provider or different providers."

Phew!  Acorn has been a schwetty puddle lately... Chores are sporadic- out for an hour then back in to recover.  Driving up to the post office is a lovely way to cool down, according to Acorn...  Driving ANYWHERE has been better than melting.  Blind Hog and Acorn took the kiddos to Crystal Bridges to see the KAWS exhibit.  Was a good way to spend a very hot day.Roses have been procured, marked down 50%.  JUST what a farm needs, lol... They are very fragrant, look like an old time rose.Sunshades on both tractors- look right "store bought."  $100, plus $4.89 for two bolts was all it cost for both. #themoreyouknow...

He is supposed to be one of the smartest men alive, I would be disappointed he didn't have a multi layered schemeThe only thing Mr terrific and Lois actually do is show Superman where the exit is the only actual physical combat Mr terrific did was punch a bunch of goons outside the portal Lois and the others in the space ship didn't actually do a single thing to help in the moment they literally just watched the fight while writing an article about lex being a bad guy Superman's “hero friends” didn't really help him that much like green lantern and hawkgirl helped stop the war in the Middle East while Superman was dealing with the world cracking open in metropolis The dog literally just ate a bunch of cameras that lex was using to pretty much control the evil Superman that's all he actually didHow was Lois a bigger hero she literally just wrote a paper about lex which jimmy olsen actually wrote more of honestly, so if he wants to say that Lois was a bigger hero than you can pretty much

Been a busy enough week...  Usual farm chores, some landscape work at the Springfield house...Miss Massey Has a new home- guy who lives about 2 miles away as the crow flies needed a tractor and voila!  Blind Hog and Acorn had just the ticket.  The farmers followed the buyer home  as he had to go the long way around due to the bridge construction, so he got a good 45+ minute test drive.  Miss Massey did brilliantly up the paved secondary road and back down the gravel tertiary road.All's well that ends well...  Sam would say "can I has another pupsicle???"

Busy enough week on the farm- got those bucklings sold and doelings listed for sale.  Garden is kicking in, Blind Hog has been doing yard and driveway work and even supervised and fetched so Acorn could change the shocks on the old F350.Acorn canned up some baked beans, brat buns, and pickled slaw.  Pretty darn tasty!Blind Hog wants sun canopies for the tractors so Acorn looked online, then thought "I wonder if people do these themselves???"  Sure enough, they do and they use used golf cart canopies which can be purchased fairly inexpensively.  Will check out a place next week with measurements in hand...
